Thanks to the advancements in wireless technologies many wireless devices have now become part of our daily life. Discuss some of the inherent characteristics of wireless communications systems which make it attractive for users.

Learning Objectives Covered

  • Explain how the major wireless technologies are used today
  • Describe various applications of wireless communications technology

You Will:

  1. List at least three inherent characteristics
  2. Explain why these are important to wireless users

Student one:

Hello classmates,

Wireless communications encompass all expects of daily life and have something to offer for all different lifestyles. Whether you're someone who constantly needs to be connected to a Wi-Fi network or someone who just uses it when needed, you've definitely connected to a wireless network. The most obvious place you would connect to a wireless network is at home. Not only could you connect to download files, but you could connect your smart phone to a wireless network to manage phone calls for you. This is beneficial as, depending on your wireless speed, this could help prevent dropped calls. Our textbook gives a great example of how convenient wireless connections can be for home use; the radio transponder sending a notification to Joseph's email. This example shows how wireless networks can improve an individuals quality of life.

In addition to wireless networks at home, most heavily used hubs contain their own wireless connection for public use. While I would recommend only connecting to public wireless networks if you absolutely have to (from a security standpoint) having the option to help greatly. Many places like airports and hospitals have their won public wireless network connection because of the difficulty cell phones have staying connected to cell towers in these places. This enables you to make or take calls when necessary.

I have my phone hooked up to a wireless network almost constantly. It ensures my calls aren't dropped, my files will download at a healthy pace, and that the entire file will download. I also use the connection to watch videos and Netflix on my phone when I'm not on my computer. Thanks for reading my post all the way through!

Student two:

I have two wireless technologically advanced mechanisms I am so grateful to own. They are my cell phones - one for work and one for my husband, and my laptop computer for all my social endeavors, for school, and for banking.

My work cell phone allows me to connect to other employees, customers, and to emergency crews as required as a daily part of my job, while I am outside and away from a corded telephone system - which is 80% of my day. My cell phone also allows me to have the answer to most questions in the palm of my hand. I don’t drive in the country I am currently living [in], but I know exactly how to get anywhere on the islands via GOOGLE Maps. I am also able to track and send real-time flight information to individuals whose livelihoods depend upon it in order to make their businesses work. The aps on my cell phone keep me entertained, and keep my mind busy, such as tracking aircraft, ships, and small vessels, learning foreign languages, playing solitaire and scrabble and allows me to be at work and to be amused at my job at the same time. My personal cell phone allows me and my husband the capability to communicate throughout the day, as we see fit. It keeps us in communication as we do not see each other for most of the day.

My laptop is a wonderful tool for me, as I go to school and earn college degrees online. I also use my laptop to Facebook family members who live a couple thousand miles away, and I also enjoy banking online. These key uses are invaluable for me as I live remotely on an island, and away from the United States. Many people utilize the online banking systems for many reasons. I choose to use online banking because I have to. While my permanent address is in Colorado, my car is parked in New Mexico) I have to pay for parking whilst I am away), I have to pay for other things – “Amazon things”, and I have credit cards and school loans through the US that all have to be paid. I get paid in Bermuda Dollars – Pretty money, usually with painted fish or birds in bright colors, depending on the value of the bill; While the exchange rate is pinned and almost equal to that of the US dollar, NO BODY wants to be paid with a painted fish, or bird in the US! I need US Dollars in order to pay my bills and to purchase the things that I want. I can pay my bills through bank transfers and thus, online banking.

Online learning is SO popular right now, and I can see why this industry will grow in the future. People are on the move, and it is important to travel, meet people and learn new cultures. Getting an education while living one’s life is COOL! – and I highly recommend it! At the same time Facetime-ing one’s family and friends while travelling would be good so that people can stay in touch and keep up with the goings-on back home.

Being Mobile- It is important for people to live their lives while they enjoy staying connected!

Being inexpensive- Mobile devices are available for the masses. There are different cost brackets for the different customer budgets.

Being User Friendly- For the most part wireless devices are fairly easy to use. If an individual has a problem with a device, there are many opportunities for lessons and classes. There are also techies who are available to assist in getting things back in order if anything should go amuck!

Indeed, wireless communication technologies are a part of everyday life. Whether it is a Wi-Fi
network (that we all love) or our mobile phones, the modern-day person, more so in metropolitan
areas or developed countries use a form of wireless technology daily. They help us do several
things. A perfect example of the same is the smartphone....
